I'm still standing, barely!

In January 2 gals from REI and I signed up to run the Detroit Half Marathon. We started our training right away and were doing group runs once a week with hopes or pushing those up to 2 or 3 times a week. Well life happened and we stopped training for one reason or another. None of us trained at all the last 2 months and we were really nervous about the race. We decided to run it anyway just to see how we would do and because we paid $75 to run it. The race was yesterday and it went pretty good. I decided to walk it instead of killing myself and trying to run it. I found the 3 hour pace setter and stuck with her most of the way until I had to stand in line at a bathroom for 15 minutes. Oh well, it was a good break. I finished in 3 hours 15 minutes, I'm telling everyone I finished in 3 hours because of the whole bathroom episode. I feel pretty good today. Sore and stiff and but that's to be expected, even if I did train. The course was beautiful. We ran over the bridge to Canada and ran through Windsor. The sun was just coming up when I was on the bridge. Beautiful. We crossed back into the United States in the underground tunnel. It was a great day and the weather was perfect. So glad I did it and am thinking of signing up for next year. Think I will do at least a little training for next year though.
